I just finished (a few days ago) Sky Eyes which is supposed to be a true story. It was hard to read parts of it and still days later I'm feeling the after shocks of the triggers for some but... It just seemed a bit much for me on the DID perspective.

I can see the similarities between page turning and switching but the other parts, parts about other beings, other living people and animals inhabiting or speaking or being near her after death, is just a bit more than what I was looking for. While I don't say it's made up, I'm more looking for something that gives real first hand experience from someone with DID who goes through the blackouts, not realizing they can or that they have parts until late adult hood, or looking for basically just someones experience with DID when it's not necessarily on a spiritual level. While I believe in a higher power and have often thought my parts are like guardian angels, I'd like to get one that describes DID from personal experiences on a somewhat scientific level, the symptoms as opposed to the spiritual belief of it. If that makes sense...

I'm looking again I've got a Kindle, and many books including Sybil and Three Faces of Eve aren't available. And I've looked into the others mentioned and they're anywhere from $10-$40 to get the book. I thought e books were supposed to be cheaper? My gift card is running out lol
